All Moms need to read Sarah's blog - notsobrightandshiny.blogspot.com. It will give you a new perspective on life and motherhood. I am humbled by this special Mom's way of giving to her child. I know there are countless stories out there about Moms in similar circumstances. But, reading Sarah's blog over the past few days has rocked 'my world.' I weep for her and pray for GOD's continued Grace to wash over them and drown them as if they were in a hurricane.

Marenda (my sister-in-law) sang this song at Hudson's dedication. It has been ruminating in my heart as I read about Sarah & Connor's journey.

Find Your Wings by Mark Harris It's only for a moment you are mine to holdThe plans that heaven has for youWill all too soon unfoldSo many different prayers I'll prayFor all that you might doBut most of all I'll want to knowYou're walking in the truthAnd If I never told youI want you to knowAs I watch you grow

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreamsAnd that faith gives you the courageTo dare to do great thingsI'm here for you whatever this life bringsSo let my love give you rootsAnd help you find your wings

May passion be the windThat leads you through your daysAnd may conviction keep you strongGuide you on your wayMay there be many momentsThat make your life so sweetOh, but more than memories

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreamsAnd that faith gives you the courageTo dare to do great thingsI'm here for you whatever this life bringsSo let my love give you rootsAnd help you find your wings

It's not living if you don't reach for the skyI'll have tears as you take offBut I'll cheer as you fly
